Description:
After reunification at the End of the Soviet Union, the re-formed Bundeswehr were in need of a standardised infantry weapon, and on a budget.
H&K, being one of the preferred candidates on the tender, offered up numerous existing designs, all turned down.
Design work was then initiated from the ground up on a modern 5.56mm assault rifle designated "Project 50" or HK50.
The prototype was then trialed, where it was rated higher than the rival Austrian Steyr AUG system. The final version of the G36
was completed in 1994. Production of the G36 began in 1995.
The G36 is an interesting melting-pot of concepts- basic operation of the rifle is fairly directly inspired by the Short-stroke piston of the Armalite AR18, the sightin system insipred by the AUG,
and through use of new age polymers and materials, and an emphasis on ambidexterous ergonomics.
Despite all this, the end product is a sort of mixed bag- while the gun is conceptually and functionally solid, long term use is starting to shake out issues like heat dissipation from hotter NATO loads
(QED the M855A1 EPR round), and the original dual-optic setup was not without usage issues.
However, to this day, the G36 is in most contexts a solid performing rifle.
